Internet radio on my S8 - gold away from London
I have been trying to work out how to get Gold on my D3 S8 when I am out of range of the DAB transmission which is around 50 miles radius of London and is no longer on national DAB.
I have the Dension 500 iPod kit which came with the car, but could not make Bluetooth streaming work from Internet radio on my iPhone. Well, it turns out I should have read the instructions more closely. Selecting iPhone and running gold app works when connected to the cable.
Lo and behold, gold radio via Internet wherever I have a phone signal. Test run to Devon coming up.
Nice to find a zero cost solution after years of expensive audio mods, car computer and iPod/ DAB integration on E38 BMW before S8.
